On this week’s Service Business Mastery Podcast, Tersh Blissett sits down with Dustin K. (Dustin Ketchem), Senior Manager of Sales Programs at LG HVAC Solutions USA.

Dustin explains how LG is reshaping the HVAC market by:

  • Building unitary systems in Alabama

  • Going all-in on inverter-driven heat pumps that perform even in -45°F Alaska

  • Supporting contractors with smart tools, training, and real-time tech - the same innovation LG will showcase live as Title Sponsor of TAP Into The Future, happening October 3-5 in Savannah, GA.

Consider this episode your first taste of the event.
